# Command: workspace select
|
|
|
|
The `tofu workspace select` command is used to choose a different
|
|
workspace to use for further operations.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
Usage: `tofu workspace select NAME [DIR]`
|
|
|
|
This command will select another workspace. The named workspace must already
|
|
exist.
|
|
|
|
:::note
|
|
Use of variables in [module sources](../../../language/modules/sources.mdx#support-for-variable-and-local-evaluation),
|
|
[backend configuration](../../../language/settings/backends/configuration.mdx#variables-and-locals),
|
|
or [encryption block](../../../language/state/encryption.mdx#configuration)
|
|
requires [assigning values to root module variables](../../../language/values/variables.mdx#assigning-values-to-root-module-variables)
|
|
when running `tofu workspace select`.
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
The supported flags are:
|
|
|
|
* `-or-create` - If the workspace that is being selected does not exist, create it. Default is `false`.
|
|
|
|
* `-var 'NAME=VALUE'` - Sets a value for a single
|
|
[input variable](../../../language/values/variables.mdx) declared in the
|
|
root module of the configuration. Use this option multiple times to set
|
|
more than one variable. Refer to
|
|
[Input Variables on the Command Line](../plan.mdx#input-variables-on-the-command-line) for more information.
|
|
|
|
* `-var-file=FILENAME` - Sets values for potentially many
|
|
[input variables](../../../language/values/variables.mdx) declared in the
|
|
root module of the configuration, using definitions from a
|
|
["tfvars" file](../../../language/values/variables.mdx#variable-definitions-tfvars-files).
|
|
Use this option multiple times to include values from more than one file.
|
|
|
|
There are several other ways to set values for input variables in the root
|
|
module, aside from the `-var` and `-var-file` options. Refer to
|
|
[Assigning Values to Root Module Variables](../../../language/values/variables.mdx#assigning-values-to-root-module-variables) for more information.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ tofu workspace list
|
|
default
|
|
* development
|
|
jsmith-test
|
|
|
|
$ tofu workspace select default
|
|
Switched to workspace "default".
|
|
```
